Daylight Savings Time Reminder

12 years ago

DST starts this Sunday, this is good news, a sure sign Spring is coming. Spring forward, fall back. I'll be spending most of Sunday running around changing my clocks and feeling hundry/sleepy at the wrong times.

Thanks for the heads up. I had no idea it was this weekend. Wow, already, seems early for some reason.

Oh no! I had no idea either! And though I like DST later in the year, and I LOVE SPRING and am soooo ready for it, it's just now getting to the point where it's light at a reasonable time in the morning here! Now it's going to be dark an hour later.

On the bright side, for me anyway, is that I start work at 5 a.m. and it's dark then anyway, and would be until later on in the season even if we didn't start DST.

*Completely off topic- dedtired, I knew you meant thing when you wrote thong. But I once made the same typo with my boss and the sentence was as follows: " I just have to get the thong notarized and I will get it to you as soon as I do that " So glad she was able to laugh as hard as I was! And yay, warm weather, flowers blooming, birds chirping- I just love the change of seasons. Even if we had a mild winter- I completely did not mind not having to trek to work in the snow this year. The first year in the last 12 years that I can remember not having to do that. Now bring on the sunlight!! :)

Another good reason to live in Arizona. We do not do daylight savings time here (except certain Indian reseverations). We have enough sun - so why change the time? I have to say that when I lived in IL and in WI I always hated daylight savings time especially in fall when it became dark so early. It would take me weeks and weeks to change my sleep patterns. I am just glad I don't have to think about that here. Except when I call back to friends in the Midwest or my daughter in the East. Now instead of 1 hour behind Midwest we bcome 2 hours behind and 3 hours behind NY. So you have to call them early otherwise they are headed for bed. CA is same time as AZ during daylight savings time. But at least in AZ real time is real time. It just makes life easier. I actually think the rest of the country should drop the time change also.

I vote for leaving it alone altogether. I prefer EST myself.

I think it's stupid and we should stay on standard year round. Hate it. It seems like we just turned our gazillion clocks in the fall and now it's all over again.
